Dynamic frame creation

hi to all,
i am trying to develop a web safe color chooser that simply displays the 216 web safe colours and displays there info on mouseover in a JLabel elsewhere on the frame.
i am doing it manually at the moment there is alot of repetition.
so i decided to try and make it in a for loop, however when i call the mouselistener i cant get the instance of the JPanel that the mouse has just entered, it always points to the last one created.
the frame is basically 12 rows (each a JPanel) of 18 JPanels that are 20 x 20 pixels. each has its size, border, mouselisteners and background colours(which are the web safe colours) set in the for loop.
what i need is that when the mouse enters the JPanel square that is the colour square (1 of 216) the actuall instance that is that colour is returned so i can pass this reference back to the calling frame.
is this possible ?
i have tinkered with Class.forName().newInstance, but without success so far.
the code i have done manually is about 2000+ LOC and the code incorporating the for loop instantiation is about 300 LOC, obviously a better solution if it can be done ?
kind regards,
g00fy

Necessity is the mother of invention :D
i have solved it, if anyone wants a web safe coolour chooser to add to there app, mail me at [email protected]
just need to convert to applet for portability, have as swing app as well
LOC now about 250, much better
kind regards to all,
g00fy

Dynamic frame building using the contents of an XML file

Hello,
My task is to parse an XML file, which contains various profiles of people. Based on what I read, I will then have to make up the GUI dynamically based on which person is selected. I have decided to use CardLayout and I was wondering if there was any way I could build a dynamic frame in netbeans, using the swing palette that is. Is there anyway I could pass in the frame details (based on a person) and is there a way that Netbeans could build the frame for me?
Could you guys let me know if this is feasible at all?
Thanks
Lexus

>
Could you guys let me know if this is feasible at all?>It sure is. The SaverBeans settings dialog does just that, for the XScreenSaver style XML used to configure screensavers. It was developed by Mark Roth using NetBeans.
Some more information on that component can be found in the [Screensaver configuration files|https://screensavers.dev.java.net/config/] page.

Does Seeburger's SFTP adapter support dynamic filename creation

Hi all,
Does the SFTP adapter support dynamic filename creation.
If yes, then do we have to use UDF's and are there any specific settings that have to be done in the SFTP communication channel.
Please provide a blog which helps in the configuration process of the above case.
thanks,
younus

Dynamic Creation of File using counter in Seeburger Variable:
1. Configuration Needed in the Communication Channel:
The process of dynamic creation of files can be done we have to select the following checkbox in the receiver channel:
Dynamic Attribute in receiver Channel:
Import the following modules:
Localejbs/Seeburger/solution/sftp
Localejbs/Seeburger/AttribMapper
Localejbs/ModuleProcessorExitBean
Enter the desired file naming convention:
Use the Parameter GetCounter("ID") to the place where the counter is expected to come.
2. Configuration Needed in the SeeBurger Workbench:
If the J2EE server is listening on a port different from 50000 (which is the standard for the SAP client 000), the port number must be configured:
Login into the seeburger workbench using the URL
http://<localhost>:<port number>/seeburger/index.html
Select Property Store.
Create or edit the following property:
Parameter
Value
Namespace
http://seeburger.com/xi/SeeFunctions
Key
provider.servlet.server
Value
http://localhost:50000/ (where the port number 50000 must be set
accordingly to the J2EE server configuration).
Note: The configured value (server URL) has to end with a slash (/). Otherwise,
SeeFunctions will not work correctly.
If we need to start the counter from any specific value , it can be configured in the SeeBurger workbench, this value can be maintained in Mapping Variables :

Does UCM support dynamic page creation on contributor mode.?

Hi All,
Does UCM support dynamic page creation on contributor mode.
We want to create new pages and link it into the existing pages
is that possible?
Thanks
~Hari

You can create new secondary pages in contributor mode - you would normally do this via a dynamic list fragment though technically you could also achieve it by switching region content and creating new data files. You can then use the linz wizard to link between pages.
If you are talking about creating new primary pages and sections in your site then you would need to use something like Site Studio Manager fragment.

Dynamic Event Creation and Handling the events

Hi All
I am using WAS 6.4.
I have two components say Component A and Component B in which Component A is a reusable component and is used by other components say for e.g the Component B.
The following is the requirement.
Component A should create buttons for other components dynamically.
As an example, Component B specifies to Component A the buttons required say button B1 and button B2.
Component B also contains methods M1 and M2 for the buttons created by the component A.
Now I would like to associate these buttons created by component A with the methods created in Component B
The number of buttons that are to be created may vary from component to component.
If any one as any suggestion or solution, help me out.
Thanks
Regards
NagaKishore

Hi NagaKishore,
     I'm not exactly sure why you want to do this, but it is pretty easy if I switch it up a bit. (Maybe you are trying to create a navigation page or something?)
     Instead of your component B using component A, if you define a Web Dynpro interface in component A, then implement this interface in component B (or all component Bs), achieving your goal would not be too difficult. It could define a generic method (or event) with a "button key" as an argument that would tell component B which button was pressed and allow it to behave as desired. The Web Dynpro interface defined in A could also have an interface context that would allow the the button text to be passed along with (for the sake of simplicity) a "button key" that component that should be triggered when the button is pressed. (Note this could be a varying size list as required.)
     The component B(s) need not be known until run-time. They can be created using something like:
wdThis.wdGet<Used Compontne Name>ComponentUsage().createComponent(<Component Name>,<Object Name (if in a different component)>)
     Once the component is created, the context can be accessed giving the list of buttons to create and the values. The buttons can be created in the wdModifyView during the first pass of the creation of the view displaying the buttons (after the dynamic creation of the used components which can occur in the wdDoInit of the component controller).
     If the user presses a chosen button on component A, then the generic method (most likely an event) of component Bs interface is called and passed the "button key", component B then takes over. Note this would also work if component B had a visualization component that must be displayed through an interface view that is defined on the web dynpro component interface that is implemented by B.
     Hope this helps or at least triggers discussion that will answer your question,
       --Greg

Dynamic Row Creation

I am making a request from an applet for sets of information, and want to display this information as rows of data. A list of addresses could be an example. What I don't know how to do is how to dynamically create fields based on the number of rows I need to create. Can I create these rows dynamically with the fields having the same name so I don't have to do dynamic textfield naming?
Thanks for any help.
Dave

Your fields don't even need to have a "name", if by that you mean the name of a variable. Or they can all have the same name, for that matter. I don't know how you want to build your GUI, but just for an example lets suppose you wanted to display customer addresses using Labels. You could use some code like this (crude approximation to good working code):for or while loop over all customers:
String name = // name of next customer
Label custLabel = new Label(name); // make a Label
add(custLabel) // add the Label to your Panel or Frame or whatever
end of loopOr you could shorten that toadd(new Label(name));but the first version is necessary if you need to change the default attributes of the Label.

AFAB dynamic variant creation for Posting period.

HI,
Business Requirement :
Business want to run AFAB transaction code every month automatically with schedule job.
system should pick present month period in posting period field.
i checked in variant creation against posting period there is no dynamic " D " in selection variable column.
how can i fix this.

Hi Jani,
Check with abaper if TVARV table can Help you in this case, or create a z program from AFAB. And add date field to it, and schedule job based on that,
I think TVARV table will be a better approach.
Another point to consider here would be that dep should be run once business is ready to do so, and has its own hick ups in business if corrections are required to be made after executing AFAB by job

MXML Dynamic Object Creation

Hi ,
Static Object Creation :
Eg:
<mx:Fade id="ViewStack_EffectStart" duration="500" alphaFrom="0.0" alphaTo="1.0"/>
<mx:Fade id="ViewStack_EffectEnd" duration="500" alphaFrom="1.0" alphaTo="0.0"/>
<comp:ErrorBox id="errorBox" active="{active}" showEffect="{ViewStack_EffectStart}" hideEffect="{ViewStack_EffectEnd}"/> .
The above static objects is working fine, but the problem is that we have lot of similiar static object which creates a memory issue.If we create dynamic objects, will it avoid the issue.Is dynamic objects advisible?.
Thanks in advance.Please reply ASAP.
Thanks ,
San.

hmn.. I don't understand your questions fully.
What about create the fade object in "Model" and reference the same Fade object for all dynamic objects?
or r u asking to find out how to create fade in actionscript?
var fade:Fade = new Fade();
fade.target = this;
fade.alphaFrom = 0;
fade.alphaTo = 1;
fade.play();
hope this helps,
BaBo,

Please help with dynamic menu creation needs to have 5 levels

Hi,
I have run into a Coldfusion problem that I was hoping you
could help me with.
What I am trying to solve is the dynamic creation of at least
5 levels of categories for a menu built with Coldfusion, and if
possible an infinite amount of levels.
Each of these also if it is at the end of the tree will have
to have products under it aswell the category will only show up if
there is products under it.
To acomplish this I have created a database table called
"Categories" which contains the fields shown in the linked
spreadsheet. I am using the "cat_parent" to hold the value of the
parent of the current record. When the parent is a top level menu
item I have assigned this a cat_parent id of "0". Using this method
I am able to do a self join on the table (where "cat_parent" =
"cat_id") to extract the relationship between parent and child
records throughout the table. This works fine. And I have created
output for 5 levels of display.
There are 3 issues left that I could not work out.
- Firstly my coding method loops through each node of the
tree with one query to create each category of the menu. This means
one query per menu category and as the client could have up to 200
categories in the menu and I am concerned that the solution that I
have come up with is too processor intensive.
- Secondly the way that I have created the category menu is
hard coding in the levels needed so there is only 5 not an infinite
amount which would be preferable but is not essential.
- Finally I could not work out how to not create "parents" in
the tree if there is no products for the end child category.
Meaning that if there is for example a category > subcategory
> subsubcategory but there is no products associated with the
end category - "subsubsubcategory" then it's parent and so on will
not display until one of them has products.
Here
is a link to a zip file that includes: the cfc that contains
the query function (categories.cfc), the page that is creating the
categories menu (lefnav.cfm), a simple cfc that contains a products
query just for testing (products.cfc) along with a spreadsheet of
the Categories table's fields.
I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks for any time and help you can give me on this

This should at least get you started in the right direction.

CS4 hungs after aborting text frame creation within command interceptor

Hi all
I´m using a command interceptor for cancelling any geometry modification to a locked -custom lock- document.
The interceptor gets kNewPageItemCmdBoss commands and, if the document is "locked", aborts them by returning a ICommandInterceptor::kCmdHandled result. This works fine for image rectangles, lines, etc.Their creation gets canceled.
The problem is with text frames; after aborting them, InDesign CS4 hungs.
I guess there is another object creation related, that gets orphaned, but don´t know which. Any idea?
Best regards

I finally solved the problem. Textframe creation involves many commands, and can´t be aborted in the kNewPageItemCmdBoss phase. I used kNewFrameCmdBoss, and setting global error within this change works, using only a document observer, without needing a command interceptor
Regards

Static & Dynamic Frames

I have a main screen with 2 panels, one is Static and will be used for Buttons, ComboBox�s etc..
I want the other panel to be able to load in different frames so that I don�t have to load up a new screen each time. (Eg Wingows Media Player, static panel down side and Dynamic panel in the middle).
Any code examples welcome, that use more than one Class.

Displaying Dynamic content is no magic. You either can add/remove JPanels and other components to it as needed, or override it's paintComponent method
